This patchset includes bug fixes and updates the code base to use the 1.6.0 Update 2 source code. However, the most exciting part of this patchset is that the browser plugin code now fully supports amd64. This is the first such support of any operating system that I'm aware of and I'd like to specially thank Jung-uk Kim and Kurt Miller for their work on this. The following platforms are supported by this release: FreeBSD 6.2/i386 (or later) FreeBSD 6.2/amd64 (or later) OpenBSD 4.0/i386 (or later) OpenBSD 4.0/amd64 (or later) NetBSD 3.1/i386 (or later) The patchset can be downloaded at: http://www.eyesbeyond.com/freebsddom/java/jdk16.html An update for the java/jdk16 port will follow shortly. -- Greg Lewis Email : glewis@eyesbeyond.com Eyes Beyond Web : http://www.eyesbeyond.com Information Technology FreeBSD : glewis@FreeBSD.org
